"But I haven't even told you what day or what time?" I was glad my friend was on the phone and not in front of me. But even then, I could still picture the disapproving/incredulous look on her face. I didn't blame her, I knew I was being ridiculous.
How can a 25year old woman be afraid of the dentist. I have had this tooth ache for almost s month now and it just keeps getting worse. I have been going through aspirin like they are sweets. Yesterday someone actually asked me why I "pop" so many pills. I have to sort this out oh, before a rumour starts to circulate that Tinu is on drugs.
I had a doctor friend write me a prescription for antibiotics because my gp said it was passed that stage and needed a dentist's attention, So far it has had no effect.
Today was the last straw, it hurt so much that I couldn't concentrate and in the end I gave up and came home. Yet here I was refusing to take the dentists appointment. Na Wa oh, I need help, any shrinks out there please help me overcome this fear oh! At this rate I will be toothless before I qualify for a freedom pass.

Omo, u better carry your two legs and find someone to organise your dentition.
No toothless people allowed at the Naija Bloggers Convention. KPOM!
Before i open my eyes and close it better run to the dentist. Do you want to be toothless before you turn 30?
Girl just picture yourself without a tooth in your mouth and you'll see yourself to the dentist without force from anyone.
Interesting I see I am not the only one afraid of dentist.
Don't read my latest post until you visit your dentist o.
Make the appointment sharpish
Bye
Pele.. Better make the appointment fast fast. You are too young for any toothless pictures
well it aint that bad.
okay it is
But if it gets infected you will need a root canal and trust me you will never forget the pain of that ! Sorry i am just trying to scare you to do the right thing!!!!!! :D
Toothache?
Good opportunity to call Daddy.
Whaddyoufink?
Nimmo
Catwalq: What if I promise not to smile, can I still come to the convention?
Unknown: I am trying to figure out which is the lesser of the two evils, being toothless or going to the dentist.
30+: Why now, you know the first thing I did was go and read your post. I had a similar experience at the dentist that involved a lot of tears, after that I became the worlds most conscientious dental hygienist, flossing, mouthwash, antibacterial rinses. You name it, its in my cupboard. So it doesn't seem fair somehow....
Allied: thanx
Jezi: And the crazy thing is that it realy hurts! I keep telling myslef that the dentist's chair cannot possibly hurt anymore. Sooner or later, I'm gonna have to bite the bullet.
Nimmo: I'm not sure what my toothache has to do with calling my dad. When I read your comment, I was motivated to go and see him, then I thought; "what if he doesn't stick to nimmo's script, what if he says something that makes me say something that I can never take back."
I am sure in time we will sort thing out, but I am not sure I am willing to eat the humble pie that I did not bake.
hehe, yeah even though i dentist visit is free, i cant go.
anyway, u are 25 and u have all this (seun and family deal) happened to you alreay? damn woman. what can bring u down now from here on?
so u going to dubai?
U better carry ur yansh go dentist place...if u let me come drag ur ass there, u will not like. shey u hear me Tinu....how can a fine girl like u become toothless, i no go allow am....
Next time i come here, there better be a post bout how much u love dentists otherwise...u no go like me...
u could just wait for the tooth to rot itself out in your mouth - i dont know what all these bloggers are saying.
:p
dis babe, carry your ass to the dentist before that shit gets infected.
Girl, I feel you- that dentist's chair can be an out of this world experience; but you've just got to suck it up sometimes. Give yourself a good treat afterwards- and focus your mind on that while you're under the drill!
T u need it sorted out o, I had the same problem. 5 years of agony till I met my dentist. Wondeful Romanian woman. She treated me 3 times,uprooted 2 teeth and a root canal. she healed me without it hurting. she restored my faith in dentists, then she resigned.
Tinu: Hmmmm....well, don't go now. Your face will soon look like Quasimodo.
@Bimby: Do you think it was the state of your teeth that did it?! LOL
ask for laughing gas and maybe a blind fold, you wont feel a thing lol.
Well said.
